Tavolàta Spokane

"The waitress was rude and ignored us. Even when we tried to get her attention. The music was honestly too loud. The chef and soux were clearly wanting to exit. And they did. The bread with the buratta was laughable. 4 two inch by 1/4 inch croutons . My ravioli was cold. The waitress made fun and belittled my father in law when in fact, my father in law was correct and pronounced the stupid wine correct. We could not get our server's attention no matter what we did. I won't be dropping almost 400 dollars there again. It's truly a shame. Some dishes were great but service was awful. And nobody was even in there! Not doing that again."

"House made pasta is always better, and Tavolata does it well. My favorites are the semolina gnocchi and tonnarelli. The gnocchi are like fluffy little pasta pillows and their marinara is just delicious. During my most recent visit, I tried one of their mocktails. It was a non-alcoholic Negroni and tasted so close to the real thing; my tastebuds were very convinced. So good! Great happy hour spot, too!"

"The food was delicious, we got our pastas during happy hour so the price was amazing. The pasta is cooked with a little bite to it which I loved. Service was great, our waitress was friendly and professional. Will definitely be returning."

"Happy Hour is a definite must! The pappardelle is phenomenal, the bite on the house made pasta is life changing. Love the hints of orange and mint, well thought dish. The olives are a great way to start! Staff is attentive and perfectly timed service."

"We went late on a Wednesday night and was able to be seated right away. Our waiter was definitely new ( couldn't answer our questions right away, but always got an answer for us). The drinks were hit or miss ( the banana cocktail was ok, the espresso martini was fantastic). The whipped ricotta appetizer was perfection. Two of us ordered the steak medium rare (perfect cook) and one ravioli. All were spectacular with their multi layered flavor profiles. For dessert, we did the gelato ( ordered the pistachio, asked to split and get one scoop of the olive oil, but they couldn't. I did get to try the olive oil, as it came with the peach crostada, and it was also very good). I was nervous to try this place again (went in August 2021, as the reviews were hit or miss, but I was very impressed, and left with a full belly ."
